Chapter 154: Growth

The fourth round of the Light Spirit Continent Armor Contest began, and the movement was completely different from before. In the first three rounds, a lot of unlucky refiners were eliminated, and by the fourth round, it was already the official debut of the grandmaster-level bull. This also shows that the level of the refining master is about to lose its color, and the competition is slowly entering the competition of top masters. In addition to Tang Shidao, a good number of refining masters were also exempted from the three rounds of the exam.

At the start of the fourth round, they are also returning to the stage.

The people who were secretly following Tang Shidao were watching quietly, thinking that if this first grandmaster didn't give up the competition, he would definitely come back in the fourth round. For a while, the various figures began to make their own plans, secretly carrying out their own plans, including some people who wanted to befriend the First Grandmaster, and also paid close attention to the Copper Forge.

"Your Excellency Master Tang, are you back, are you ready to start participating in the competition?"

Seeing Tang Shidao's return, the dwarves were very happy, and they looked like we were going to hold a drinking contest to celebrate.

For dwarves, any joy can be expressed in drinking.

The owner of the copper and stone hammer workshop led by him even signaled the rat people employees to bring a batch of refining materials.

Sent to Tang Shidao.

The bronze hammer said, "Your gift, Master Tang. Don't get me wrong, we can't come up with something as good as 'Longmian Steel'. These were sent by some businessmen, and their names were on the bill of materials. I suggest you take it, it's not to be embarrassed. These merchants have generally studied magic, and they are not mages, but they have a half-baked level, and they make friends with strongmen sometimes to support the mages of their own plane. ”

Tang Shidao didn't understand well: "What do you mean?" ”

"For example, if there is a group of merchants in your world who have befriended a very powerful mage, then you may be able to use these merchants to help this powerful mage. In a sense, the more strong people a merchant befriended, the more strong men a mage on his own plane might know. So, the mages generally support the merchants in doing so. ”

Tang Shidao understood a little, accepting the gift by himself was not a promise, it was just a businessman's speculation.

Whether it succeeds or not, it has no effect on the mages of the merchant plane.

It's done, and the merchant can pick up some bargains.

No, the merchant loses some materials, and the mages of this plane will not do evil to themselves.

"Your Excellency Master Tang, although the merchants are half-witted in terms of spells, they have a wide range of information channels. Sometimes it's convenient to tell them what you need. No matter how bad it is, they can also help you find out some relevant news. So, I don't feel the need to refuse their kindness. Even if you can't help them with alchemy, you're still a powerful mage, and no one minds befriending someone as strong as you. The copper hammer gave the reason.

It means that as a refiner, dealing with merchants is unavoidable.

Alchemists need a wide variety of materials.

If each material were to be found by himself, the refiner would not have to do anything. Alchemists are different, they often need plants, which laymen simply can't collect. The alchemist's materials are mostly minerals, and merchants with half-baked magical abilities can also collect them.

"Okay, I'll take it." Tang Shidao lives in the Emperor Star and knows what role merchants play.

"That's fine. By the way, some of your friends have left you a message. They are now here in Yaoguang One Star, and they also said that if you come back, you will go to the Green Court to find them, and one of the alchemists named Blue-Eyed Fox said that he had something very important to tell you. You don't know about the Green Court yet, do you? The Green Court is the most luxurious entertainment venue in Yaoguang One Star, and it has a magical barrier that can be isolated from outsiders, which is the most private place here. ”

"Okay, thanks, I'll go right away. Well...... Those merchants, please inform them, maybe we can meet in the Green Court. ”

"They'll be overjoyed, Master Tang." The brass hammer was already holding the glass.

It seems that the merchants also gave the copper hammer workshop benefits, such as 'armor orders' or something.

Tang Shidao only smiled and said no more.

Out the door.

Soon.

Tang Shidao only casually asked a light spirit guard, and easily inquired about the location of the Green Court. In less than ten minutes, Tang Shidao flew to a large plain of green grass, and the plain was covered with a large mana shield. In an instant, Tang Shidao immediately sensed that this was the effect of the Great Mantra.

"Visitors, please stay, is Your Excellency the First Sect Master, Mr. Tang Shidao?" There are a lot of guards around this 'green garden', including some small floating islands in the air.

There is a Dharma passage at intervals.

These passages are the 'gates' for entering and exiting the Green Court.

"Yes." Tang Shidao knew that it was a formal response.

"Great, Master Tang. That's right, your friend went out two days ago, in response to the request for help from the Supreme Light Temple, and went to the fifteenth quarantine area of Yaoguang One Star to assist in the guards. Your Excellency Master Tang, I will send a message on behalf of the Supreme Light Palace, hoping that you will reach out and help us repel the enemy. The guard saluted with a solemn expression.

"Is it serious?" Tang Shidao knew that the Light Spirit Continent was close to the Void, and there were often Void Beasts invading.

"There is news from the front that the force of the invasion is not very strong. However, there are a lot of them, and they are all fast and flying beasts, so it is very troublesome. Luckily, there are a lot of mages coming at this time, otherwise we might have to give up some places and send legions back to suppress it. The guard elaborated.

"I see, okay, I'll go right over." Tang Shidao guessed that this might have something to do with him.

However, it is just speculation and not sure, so I simply don't say much. Thinking about it, they hadn't seen each other for a long time with the blue-eyed fox, and I didn't know how much they had improved in their cultivation in the small void base. This time, I just took the opportunity to see the growth of my friends.

When the guards heard this, they were overjoyed.

Beckon.

A light fighter flew over and quickly opened the hatch. Tang Shidao flew in, and he was a little unaccustomed to it for a while.

Mages and technology, huh.

If you know the location of Quarantine Zone 15, you can do it with a positioning teleportation technique, and what kind of plane will you take. didn't say much along the way, and the envoy directly played the face painting of the battlefield, so that Tang Shidao had a preparation in advance. In the picture, the fifteenth isolation area is actually a huge magic shield, and there is a void crack in the middle of it, and a large number of alien beasts are constantly jumping out at this time.

A crack is like a hole in a dam.

The Void Beasts are like a tide, constantly gushing into this strange world.

Periphery in the distance.

Countless light spirit guards united to form a defensive line, preventing the alien beasts from passing through and breaking out of this oversized mana shield. At this time, there are also some mages and mechanic puppets on the battlefield who are fighting hard. It feels like they're heroes in the game, mowing the grass to kill creeps. If it weren't for the fact that there were too many minions of the Void Beasts, the mages would have won the victory long ago.

"Guard, doesn't the force of the invasion seem to be very strong?" Tang Shidao asked idly.

"Yes, the strength is really not high, and the trouble is that there are a lot of them. Your Excellency Master Tang, we have also sent sentinels on the opposite side of the Void Rift to reconnoiter early and warn early, so we have enough time to face the battle. This time the message was worse, the sentinels said that there was still a steady stream of strange beasts coming, and it could take more than ten days. ”

"That's why." Tang Shidao understood.

The invading Void Beasts are not powerful, but too numerous and troublesome.

I thought about it.

Then he asked, "Guard, why don't you close this crack?" Although the Void Rift is difficult to neutralize and dissolve, there should be a way to do it, right? ”

When the guard heard this, he immediately replied: "Your Excellency doesn't know anything, it's more important than turning off the security." No, we can also send people into the rift and send sentries to reconnoiter the situation on the other side. If something bad happens, you can at least take one step ahead of time. If they are turned off, we don't know if they concentrate their forces, we don't know if they are strong or weak, and we don't know when they will open the cracks. This is the Void Neighbor, and they're the easiest to tear through the rifts, so it's better not to turn them off. ”

Tang Shidao nodded.

Since the enemy must be attacking from an unknown space, it is much better to 'plug in the eyes' than to be completely unaware.

Go to the Void and build a small base yourself.

The Void Passage Ring is not the most important thing, but the undead golems that patrol the surroundings. Those puppets are the 'eyes', the 'eyes' of the enemy.

While the two were talking, soon, the fifteenth quarantine area arrived.

Tang Shidao flew out of the plane.

Now.

Countless flying demons screamed and screamed like swarms of locusts; Countless spiked monster dogs roared and roared, pouring down the land like a tidal wave. This apocalyptic spectacle is terrifying in a techno-tech society, but it's nothing special in the mage world.

Tang Shidao saw the flying demon pounce, waved a few ice arrows to kill a few, and held one with one hand.

Cast Life Discovery.

There's only one obvious reason to give back: hunger!

The flying demon was healthy, not poisoned or hypnotized, it was just starving, hungry to the point of desperate madness. In other words, these lower animals have no brains in the first place, and they are not afraid of anything once they are hungry and crazy. Because the intelligence is too low, the effect of casting the fear spell is not great.

Observe the crowd below.

Soon.

Tang Shidao found the figure of Mei Mo and the others at a glance.

They got stronger.

Thunderstone's body is stronger, holding a giant shield with barbs in his left hand and a chain hammer in his right hand. Focusing on defense, it guards the side of the charm steadily, protecting the mage battery from being disturbed. Tang Shidao also saw that there were some light patterns on the surface of Lei Shi's body, which seemed to be a special magic weapon to enhance strength. Although it is a defender, it can kill many strange dogs with a single stomp on this kind of battlefield.

The other, the Stone-Eating Monster.

Stoneeaters that focus on attacking are more varied. It is stronger than before, at least five meters in size. Its weapon is a greatsword, which can drive a powerful wind when wielded. Not only can it blow enemies away, but it can also smash them. The Stone-Eating Monster is not too far away from the main formation, and has always been wary of the giant monster dogs in the battlefield.

The blue-eyed fox is as good as ever.

As an alchemist, it is only good at using magic puppets, so it is controlling more than a dozen magic puppets to wield a big sword to slash monster dogs. At the same time, there are also four scorpion puppets around to protect himself and Meimo from danger. Probably because the opponent was too weak, the blue-eyed fox did not use the alchemy medicine, and only responded to the battle according to the normal mode.

The last one.

Mei Mo, she has grown a lot.

Compared with the three of Thunderstone Eating Monster and Blue-Eyed Fox, Meimo has a reborn change. Her demonic horns and demonic wings had grown in size, sharper and more elaborate, with faint small runes. Mei Mo didn't use a staff, and her hands were the magic weapons of the Dragon's Claw Gloves, which were just right for the fire spell she was best at.

Four people are not a five-person squad, but their combat effectiveness is more than ten times stronger than at the beginning.

Shield Guard.

Sword Fighter.

Puppet alchemist.

Spell Turret.

With just the cooperation of the four of them, countless strange dogs and evil ghosts besieged it were useless. They are like reefs in a rapid, easily tearing apart all the waves. Tang Shidao also knew that they were far from trying their best, just a small warm-up.

But.

At this time, there is always a strange feeling in my heart: why is it so weak?

In my memory, they are all quite strong, at least not too much worse than themselves.

Why, when they have made leaps and bounds, look so weak? You must know that the characters who dare to work hard in the void are already the elite of the mage network.
